Let's start by defining what is meant by "political stability". A country, usually resource rich, that is under a dictatorship, installed and funded by the western world,where… no democratic process exists, and people live in perpetual fear, is called political stability. Another country, also resource rich, with free and fair elections,with several parties(not one) and where people expect control over their resourses, in other words, a healthy, functioning democracy , such as Venezuela. This is always called "political instability" in western propaganda. Margaret Thatcher once said to her murderous buddy Pinochet- "It was you who brought democracy to Chile."
